update badge number even if the app is totally closed

[alaa-alshamy]

On ios this is so simple we can just calc the badge number on the server and add badge payload to the notification we send

but is there any thing like "badge" payload in android to update badge number from os? because i need to update it even if the app is totally closed

any help please

@alaa-alshamy if you send msgcnt, badge or count in the data object of your payload it should work in the background as long as your device is supported by shortcutbadger. Give it a try and let me know and I will officially document it.
